After I installed my new GTX 970 (yesterday) my friends started to complain about a very loud static noise and random noises when I start playing games in fullscreen (this is happening only on skype).
My headset: Steelseries Siberia 200

lack of system spec. power draw problems from low watt psu? no idea no system specs.

check your windows recording properties settings, maybe background noise cancellation became deselected. maybe your new gtx 970 causes heat problems as well to the onboard audio.
